Steuryngs: One More for the Road
http://steuryngs.blogspot.com/2012/10/one-more-for-road.html
Stories and musings of the Steurys. Tuesday, October 9, 2012. One More for the Road. Can I just say here that there is NO comparison! American roads are wonderful. Even the rough ones are nothing in comparison to what we are used to. We laughed that some roads had actual signs warning of a dip in the road or a rough area. In Kenya, there would be one of those signs every two feet! The scenery of course is worlds apart. The boys letting us know they are watching and taking lessons from the back seat!

Stories and musings of the Steurys. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. The Art of Bartering. Rumor has it that Walmart has the lowest prices in the merchandise world. Well, I know better! Anyone who has ever shopped at the outdoor markets on Kenya’s city streets knows the reality! Not a better deal can be had than the one you’ve argued over to get! Bartering is not an exact science, and I believe that one can only measure success by how much one wants the thing they are bartering for. It’s really kind of fun. Then t...

Steuryngs: January 2013
http://steuryngs.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Stories and musings of the Steurys. Thursday, January 3, 2013. Our family has been on furlough here in the U.S since July. We've managed to move three times and have one more coming up. That is when we leave here and go back to Kenya in February. Today I was musing on what a different person I am while I live in America. None of them were bad discoveries and I don't think any are going to damage me for life. Some were surprising tho. 1 Leave chocolate sitting on the counter for two days in a row. 20 Call...

Steuryngs: June 2012
http://steuryngs.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Stories and musings of the Steurys. Tuesday, June 26, 2012. A Romans 8:28 Moment. In my last post, I wrote about a terrible trip Jon had made and how he had taken a lady to Narok who was in labor. The odds were against her and her baby. In fact, all had been told the child was dead. Yet, a few days later, we got word that the baby had lived! We were so happy. Mom and baby doing fine!

Steuryngs: November 2011
http://steuryngs.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Stories and musings of the Steurys. Monday, November 21, 2011. Part 3 and the last.South Sudan.The "varmits"! Then some funny stuff. So, I should say in all fairness to the other species, only the insects curled my toes. I also added a few funnies at the end. This thing has been in some fights, that's all I can say! Mosquito net tucked in? Check Ipod on the floor? Okay, if you'd have asked me, they should have squished this freaky thing straight away, but then I was still mad about the cockroach thing.

Stories and musings of the Steurys. Thursday, May 3, 2012. Going Places.or NOT! Rainy season in Kenya. I have a lovely garden. Its all green and lush, full of fire finches, sparrows, basil, and happy bees. I haven't been able to get into my garden for a week now. The mud is unbelievable! As soon as my feet hit that swampy yard, I no longer need anything in that small little space. So imagine what it must be like to actually GO anywhere in a vehicle or bike or motorcycle! He must have lived at Olderkesi.

Steuryngs: Reordering Our Normal
http://steuryngs.blogspot.com/2013/11/reordering-our-normal.html
Stories and musings of the Steurys. Thursday, November 21, 2013. There is a line in the Velveteen Rabbit book where the bunny asks, "how do we become real? I had not thought of that line for years. Recently however, I've begun to ask myself how do new missionaries become acclimated to where they find themselves on the mission field? How did I ever become acclimated? I keep thinking, I must have just been totally oblivious when I got here! When did the extraordinary become…well normal. Granted, we had all...
